Emi chan's note :
Hey wow I think for the first time, Miyako's dad's police
assistants are in the manga!
In this issue's cover, there's the 3 assistants in it!
They've never appeared otherwise
in the manga, I think...
Oh and Access is still in his big form ^_^ And Miyako is
actually the evil spirit talking in
the beginning.
And "donkan" means dense or someone who doesn't
realise things ^_-;

Tanemura Arina
Chapter 27 -- Well, Actually
(Anone, Hontouhane)
[Miyako reads Jeanne's notification]
Girls : Miyako---! What's the matter? Let's play cards!
Miyako : It's nothing. [scrunches up notification] I'm going
for a little walk.
Girls : What? It's already 12!
[Jeanne appears with the moon behind her]
Jeanne : Reincarnated by God to seal evil..... Mysterious
Thief Jeanne! Sent by God, I have
been called!
[Jeanne glances]
Jeanne : By the way Access, is your burn okay? You can stay
back if you want?
(Tanemura's note : They finally decided to pair up to work
together)
Access : No, it's okay... This is a symbol of love (love
heart)
Jeanne : ? ?
Access : Anyway, for some reason, being at this mountain
makes me feel better.
This wound will heal soon.
Jeanne : That's okay then....
[Bushes rustle]
[Access and Jeanne look annoyed]
Jeanne : What do you want Noin?
[An arrow points to Noin in the bushes]
[Noin has a sweatdrop]
Jeanne : I'm angry, you know. You knew an evil spirit has
posessed Miyako and you kept
quiet about it, didn't you?
[Noin looks guilty]
Noin : Uh... well, that's... I am very sorry... (small
print) Please forgive me
[Noin kneels and kisses Jeanne's hand]
Jeanne : [sighs] ..... Well, it's fine. It's not like I
don't know how you feel.
[a hand pushes back some bushes]
Jeanne : Anyway, you're not the one I have to deal with for
doing wrong.
[Miyako appears]
[Miyako is with Chiaki]
Jeanne : ...... Remember... [glares] I'll never forgive you
for laying a hand on Miyako!
Miyako : [laughs] Oh please, don't speak pretty words! I
suppose your
feelings to take back Nagoya Chiaki are a priority. This
poor girl also...
[Miyako rustles a piece of paper]
[She shows Jeanne a photo of when Miyako and Chiaki were
little, smiling]
Miyako : Has kept this photo with her all along and even
still, friendship is only short lived
after all.
Jeanne : [surprised] That photo... I see.. That's where you
are....
[Jeanne walks closer]
Jeanne : When Chiaki left me... My heart actually felt a
little relieved. Fin... said that
the devil's intention was "to hurt Kusakabe Maron's
heart and then kill her when she is weak".
If he was with me, Chiaki would most definitely try and
protect me and would be in danger.
So.. if he could be happy with Miyako, then that was all
right.... But
[Jeanne's rosary glows]
Jeanne : I won't accept their love if it's false!!
[Jeanne stands with her sword]
Miyako : I am not the same as the inferior evil spirits you
have come across! I won't let you
seal me!!
[Miyako attacks Jeanne]
Access : Jeanne, dodge it!!
[Jeanne opens up her fan and the attack disintegrates into
gentle flower petals]
[Jeanne looks at Miyako, making the evil spirit dread her]
Miyako : Chiaki! Hold her back!
[Chiaki grabs Jeanne]
Miyako : How's that! Even you wouldn't be able to attack
your lover...
[Jeanne kicks Chiaki off and the evil spirit is in shock]
Miyako : Wha...wha...wha..
Jeanne : [walking closer] Oh what a pity~~~~~ My feelings
for Chiaki right now are, even though
I'm in the position of sealing evil, full of a hundred times
bitterness from him
being manipulated by evil out of cowardice. This is the end.
Give up!!
[Jeanne lifts her sword]
Miyako : Wait!!
[The sword stops]
[Miyako's neck is being cut by the evil spirit]
Miyako : Go ahead and check mate. Then this girl's life will
be no more. Let's make a trade.
If you do seal me, as soon as you check mate than I will
slit this girl's throat. If you do
not seal me, I will leave this girl's body. I will release
her.
[Jeanne notices the photo]
(flashback) Little Miyako : This photo is symbol of our
friendship okay? We'll vow by this photo
that we'll tell each other our secrets.
Jeanne : [thinks] Secrets.... [aloud] Miyako...
[Miyako reacts]
Miyako : [groans] Ugh...!
Jeanne : [thinks] She reacted to my voice!? Miyako!
Miyako : Stupid girl!
[the evil spirit tries to hold Miyako back]
Miyako's monologue : I don't want Maron to leave. I also
don't want Chiaki to be taken.
But those two are both leaving me at the same time. I hate
hiding things. I hate to be left
out. But I'll wait... One day, you'll talk to me. When you
talk to me, I'll be able to be angry
with you... And I'll also be able to forgive you. Maron...
Since when did you stop telling me
the truth...?
Jeanne : [thinks] Miyako... [aloud] ... That's true. Let's
have no more secrets between us..
[Jeanne puts her sword to the side]
Jeanne : Akuma san (evil spirit san) my reply is
"no". I'm sorry, I'll have to seal you. I told
you that I can't forgive you!
[Jeanne reaches up to her hair]
Miyako : Then this girl will only be following my paths!
[Miyako reaches for her throat]
[Jeanne quickly undoes the ribbon in her hair]
Jeanne : [thinks] Miyako! Even a moment is okay! Please react
to me!! Hold back the evil spirit
and bring yourself back!! Jeanne is me.... It's me Maron....
[Jeanne turns back to Maron]
Miyako : Ma... ro... n... Really?
[Maron smiles]
[Her rosary glows and she transforms again, then seals the
evil spirit before it gains control]
[Miyako faints]
[The photo turns white]
Jeanne : [sweatdrop] Oopsies, I thought it would
disappear... [smiles]
[thinks] I didn't think Miyako would still have kept this
photo...
[Jeanne reaches into her own pocket]
Jeanne : In return for stealing yours, I'll give you mine.
So I guess I'll be keeping this
one.... hm? [thinks] It's a new symbol of friendship!
[smiles]
[A new image on the photo has appeared : an older Maron and
Jeanne smiling to each other]
Jeanne : Check mate!
[Maron and Miyako are walking, Miyako ahead of Maron]
Maron : [thinks] I told her everything, but she won't say a
word to me..
Maron : Mi-ya-ko (love heart) [giggle]
Miyako : [irritated] WHAT?
Maron : Are you angry?
Miyako : I'm not angry or anything. You suddenly tell me
you're Jeanne and you're a thief working
for God! Do you think I can believe you straight away?
Maron : But it's the truth!
[Maron turns all kitten-like with matching ears, mouth and
collar with bell]
[Miyako has sweatdrops]
[Maron meows]
Miyako : Fi...fine....
Maron : Well as well as that, I'm sorry...
Miyako : For what?
Maron : That I didn't tell you that I was being the thief.
And I surprised you like this....
Miyako : I'm not surprised at all! [frowns]
Maron : What? ? ?
[Miyako turns around]
Miyako : The fact that you were Jeanne was obvious to me
from the very beginning!
(small print) You don!
(Tanemura's note : "Don" is from
"donkan")
[Maron is shocked]
Maron : You're lying!!!
Miyako : No I'm not!!!
Miyako : [laughs in the "hohohoho" way ^_-;] How
long do you think we've been childhood friends?
I didn't think that you got your power from God to
transform, but to underestimate Toudaiji
Miyako's powers means that you're still medium rare---!
Maron : [thinks] I'm glad she knew! I'm supposed to be glad,
but why do I feel this sense of
being insulted...
Maron : Then the reason you wanted to catch me was...
Miyako : .... if dad or the other police officers did catch
you, if I was there, then I could
just say "I stuffed up" and let you go, right? I'm
still too young and they'll let it go,
thinking that I'm not really a police person. It didn't seem
like you were being a thief for
the money...
Maron : [thinks] So that's why...
Miyako : Besides that, you still have one more secret don't
you? You like Chiaki don't you?
[Maron blushes and feels guilty]
Maron : Ye...Yes...
Miyako : Then why didn't you answer to his feelings? You're
not being showy are you?
Maron : No! It's because Chiaki is... The person you like...
Miyako : Wait a second~~~~~~~ You aren't going to say it's
for me or something are you~~~~~~?
Maron : No! I just don't like it, that's all! I'm not such a
good person to say "it's for
Miyako" and I won't push responsibility on you either!
Maron monologue : Now I understand why I couldn't say
"I love you" to Chiaki all this
time... Why I was afraid...
Maron : [cries] I just didn't want to hurt you Miyako!
[Miyako is surprised, then smiles]
Miyako : You're so stupid.
[Miyako wipes Maron's tears away]
Miyako : I'm not someone who's soft enough to get hurt by
something like that! (small print) You
medium rare!
Maron : [sweatdrop] Oh come to think of it, we left Chiaki
there
Miyako : [giggles] Then go bring him back! My special
person... Make him happy Maron.
[Maron is uncertain at first, but then smiles and runs off]
[Miyako waves and smiles]
Miyako : [thinks] Well, well... She's such a troublesome
childhood friend.
[There's sobbing nearby]
Miyako : Hm?
[Minazuki kun is hiding in the bushes holding branches and
camouflaging, sobbing]
(Arrow points to him saying : Since the two were missing, he
came to find them)
Miyako : Whoa!! (<---- reeeeeeal huge font please V
^_^;;)
Class rep! Since when were you there!? What did you hear!?
Minazuki : I came around "You like Chiaki don't
you?"
[Miyako sighs in relief]
Miyako : [thinks] My God that was dangerous!
[Minazuki cries]
Minazuki : Your friendship has touched me! But is it okay?
Nagoya kun...
Miyako : It's okay. I don't want to make things harder on
Maron. I told you that I wouldn't
forgive anyone who hurts Maron, right? I won't forgive
anyone who hurts Kusakabe Maron! Even if
that person is Toudaiji Miyako!
[Miyako smiles]
[Minazuki blushes]
Minazuki : [takes Miyako's hand] I'm in love with you!
Miyako : Uh? Hey, what happened to Maron! (small print) Are
you planning to cheat!?
[Miyako snatches her hand away]
Minazuki : Maron san clearly dumped me!
Miyako : As if I'm going to believe you falling in love with
me just right now!
Minazuki : It's not just now! Actually, I've been interested
in Toudaiji san from a while
back!! Please go out with me!!
[Miyako blushes and is shocked and speechless]
Miyako : Stop joking! Idiot!!
[Miyako pushes him away and Minazuki falls into the creek]
[Minazuki is sopping wet and looks up with a determined
stare]
Minazuki : Joking?
[Miyako realises how serious he is]
[Minazuki pushes Miyako against a wall]
Miyako : !
Minazuki : I'm a man you know. I can prove to you that I'm
not joking!
[Miyako's heart beats fast]
[Minazuki leans in to kiss Miyako]
[Miyako pushes Minazuki away so hard that he gets dizzy and
sees stars]
Miyako : [annoyed] You're ten years early trying to make a
move on me! Wash your face and
start over! (small print) You're only rare! Rare!
(Emi's note : Rare as in contrast to Maron being medium rare
^_^;)
[Miyako's heart beats fast]
[Miyako frowns]
Miyako : [thinks] Uh.. Hm?
[Miyako has her hand at her heart]
Minazuki : [shouts after her] I won't give up Toudaiji
sa---------n!
(Back at the mountain side)
[Chiaki is sitting there puzzled]
Chiaki : What the heck am I doing here? I planned to meet
Maron at the park and somehow I'm
at a mountain!? Or maybe is this mountain the park!? Ohhhh
yes, then that would be okay....
Argh, as if! Anyway, I.... Anyway I.... I just want to touch
Maron!!
[Chiaki bawls, hugging a Maron doll that he stole off his
dad]
[Maron comes running, finding him bawling]
Maron : Chiaki!
[Chiaki's hair sticks up]
(Arrow points to it : Radar)
Chiaki : [turns] Maron!
[Maron hugs him]
Chiaki : Wha? Wha? Maron? (small print) What's the matter?
This is the first time you've ever
hugged me! I'm so happy! I'll hug you back!
Maron : Um, I..
[Chiaki disappears right in front of Maron]
Maron : What? Chiaki?
[Fin appears from behind Maron]
Fin : Nagoya Chiaki has ceased to exist. He's dead.
(Meanwhile, Access has found a cave)
Access : Hmmm~~~~~ I was thinking this mountain was nice and
no wonder. I feel really strong
holy power in this cave! If a human finds it, it might be
used as something evil again. I'll
just draw in all the holy power and then seal it!
(Tanemura's note : The reason why you're such a drop out
angel is because you do stuff
like that!)
Voice : ....cess... Access...
Access : Hm?
Voice : Help....
[Access loses the colour in his face, then runs away]
Access : Gaaaaahhhhhhhh--------!!!!!!!!! A ghost-----!!!!!!
[Stops in his tracks]
Access : Hm? Hang on, how would a ghost know my name?
[Access peeks slowly inside the cave again]
Access : You...!
[Celcia and Toki are there, frozen]
